[OLPC-GSoC] Weekly update : reminder, link

[Assim Deodia]

Hi All,

I have added a link to my weekly updates from the overview section.

I started with with making a dictionary DB for my application (listen-spell)
which was actually breaking the wordnet dictionary DB to something just
useful for listen-spell. The DB was in SQL format which was also required to
be converted to SQLite format.

Using the DB and talkntype application as the start base I developed the
v1.0 of the application (command line version) with limited features only
and committed to git today :). Right now its almost same as talkntype with
SQLite support, few added features and few more bugs.

I have shifted my focus towards the pronunciation of the words and the voice
quality (which would be I suppose the toughest part of the project). For
this i am exploring few pronunciation dictionary and its compatibility with
espeak.

I have maintained all my update details at:
